Get their match-ups right and Waterford will beat Galway in a shootout

I'm really looking forward to Sunday. It's going to be one hell of a game.

It's captured every neutral's imagination because it's such a unique pairing in the final. It's as intriguing as it gets.

Galway have a bit of an edge experience-wise as they've been in finals recently but all the Waterford guys have won minor and U21 All-Irelands so they know what it's like to play on the big stage too.

Pressure is for Tribes

For me, all the pressure is on Galway.

This group of players won't get a better chance of winning an All-Ireland. Joe Canning is pushing 29. How many more chances is he going to get to finally get his hands on a Celtic cross medal?

Their record against Waterford isn't good but their supporters will believe that if they hurl as well as they have this year that they will win. It'll be very hard for the Galway players not to feel that in the back of their minds as well.

They've gone in to previous All-Ireland finals as underdogs against Kilkenny, Cork or Tipperary as underdogs so it'll be interesting to see how they cope with the favourites tag.

They were slight favourites against Tipperary but they looked like a team that was afraid to lose rather than really want to push on and put the knife in.

Waterford have nothing to lose. They're going in as underdogs and Galway are deserved favourites after winning the league and Leinster very comfortably and knocking out the defending champions.
